This bootcamp is aimed to help you get a fast-start to Slush Hacks, so you can be better prepared, learn the tech and get feedback on your ideas. As consumer we use games, apps and various services daily that offer us personalized experiences, many of which have a gamification aspect. Yet, we don't always get the same experience with the public services we use daily. It's time to change that. The city of Turku, and cities across the world, are opening up data and working with developers to create better services for their communities. Join us for another session of #DevShark, this time working with the city and Slush Hacks to challenge and reward the best cases. During the day you'll hear from various experts, from technical providers, the city and various open data experts. The training is free for all. All attendees should bring their own development machine, equipped with their preferred development environments and the appropriate Azure SDK downloadable from http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/ This technical training will focus on the Ultrahack Civic Tech -challenge, part of Slush Hacks with a 20 000€ main prize and the Azure Cloud Challenge, through which you can win additional 10 000€.  Time Title 09:30 - 09:50 Welcome & Introduction to the day 09:50 - 10:15 What does the future of the cities look like? 10:15 - 10:30 Presenting the Civic Tech -challenge // Teemu Roponen 10:30 - 10:45 Break 10:45 - 11:45 Stop.

This bootcamp is aimed to help you get a fast-start to Slush Hacks, so you can be better prepared, learn the tech and get feedback on your ideas. The training is free for all. All attendees should bring their own development machine, equipped with their preferred development environments and the appropriate Azure SDK downloadable from http://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/downloads/ This technical training will focus on the Ultrahack Smoother E-commerce -challenge by Posti and the Azure Cloud Challenge by Microsoft, through which you can win additional 10 000€.  Develop an app to make everyday e-commerce logistics smoother with e.g. gamification, more effective operations and improved processes through usage of data. It can be an easier way to follow your parcels, handle return logistics - or ways to prevent returns in the first place. How does the cloud play into this challenge? What if we could do to Posti what Uber did to Taxis and make everyone the postman? What if your neighbor or a complete stranger could delivery your package? We could use Machine Learning to understand who is the most appropriate courier for you, based on location, distance, type of package, type of delivery method, reliability and other characteristics. Or maybe you need a cloud to store the data in and backend for your mobile app to track the delivery?
